星光熠熠一个礼拜。。。 Star-studded week…

有些事真的很难预料。。。有些事很难想象。。。有些事真的超过所求所想。。。
但在这些事的背后有什么意义?神的旨意是什么?他要你做什么,那才重要!

度过星光熠熠的一个礼拜,以一个出生于与在偏僻小镇林梦长大的我,到今天一个礼拜内接触好几颗“星星”的我,给平常的人会觉得有些不可思议,但这一切是为什么?上帝到底在说什么?他要我们做什么?

Certain things are hard to predict… certain things are hard to imagine… certain things are really beyond what we think and ask for…
But what is the purpose behind all these things? What is God’s will? What does He want you to do? That is what is important!

12月7日(二)半夜抵达台北,在例外人门口毫无预警出现,认真把他们吓了一跳。第二天一早就随他们去录影,当然我只是观众或观摩者。那天从早到晚观赏他们一口气录了两集由乃哥主持的综艺节目,也有机会跟乃哥交谈,感觉他真是一个很棒又谦卑的主持人,乃哥也很照顾我们例外人。。。
I arrived Taipei at midnight on Tuesday, Dec 7th, and appeared unannounced at The Remnant’s door seriously giving them a shock. Early the next morning I went with them to watch their TV recording programme, of course I was only an audience and observer. That day, from morning till night I watched how The Remnant recorded two series of the variety show hosted by Nai Ge, and I had a chance to talk to Nai Ge too. I feel that he is really a good host and humble person, and he takes good care of our Remnant too…

节目嘉宾包括了:
棒棒糖 - 给我的印象是,不错的年轻艺人,不止帅气,背后一定很努力练舞、操练等等,因为他们舞蹈跳的很好、很整齐。。。
The programme includes:
Lollipop Four – they gave me the impression of very fine young men, not only good-looking but they must have practised real hard behind the scene as they could dance and synchronize well with each other…

印象很深刻的当然是大马国宝,梁静茹,很专业、有势力,又为人谦和,这是很难得的,一听到例外人是马来西亚人,就给他们很多鼓励。。。
The one who gave me a deep impression was of course the pride of Malaysia, Fish Leong, she is really professional, talented, and humble at the same time, which is really hard to find. When she heard The Remnant are from Malaysia, she immediately gave them a lot of encouragement…

再来就是温岚,歌声很有爆发力,舞也跳得很好,为人也友善、谦卑。。。
其实跟这些知名艺人搭配,例外人可以学习到很多东西。
Next is Wen Lan who has a very powerful voice and can dance very well too. She also comes across as being very friendly and humble…
Actually The Remnant can learn so much from working together with all these top artistes…

比较有接触和更深一层面认识的是接下来几天陆陆续续见面的其他艺人,其中当然是基督徒艺人团契的宋逸民、达民双胞胎兄弟和何戎等人。。。
Those whom we have more contact with and a deeper understanding would have to be the other artistes we got to meet the following few days, among them are of course those from the Christian artistes fellowship like twin brothers, Song Yi Min and Da Min, and also He Rong etc…

这是宋逸民夫妇。。。
Below are Song Yi Min and wife…

跟例外人宣传观光活动当中,嘉宾为时尚F4之一的丁春城。。。人很高,节目安排他现场做菜,我还充当被邀上台品尝他炒的菜的观众,哈哈!
During one tourism promotion activity with The Remnant, the guest artiste was fashion model/actor Ding Chun Cheng… he is very tall, and the programme required him to cook on the spot, and I even acted as the audience invited to go on stage to taste his cooking, haha!

我们在朋友家也有机会跟潘越云喝下午茶,但愿主保守她认真跟随主脚踪。。。
We also had a chance to have afternoon tea with Pan Yue Yun at a friend’s house, may God guard her heart to follow the Lord seriously…

朋友也弄来几张票带我们去看我“年轻”时的另一“偶像”,林慧萍的演唱会。。。她最近也有接触基督教,只是信仰有多稳定,也只有求主怜悯和保守了。。。
Our friend also managed to get us tickets to bring us to the concert of my other “idol” during my “younger” days, Lin Hui Ping… she is also in touch with Christianity recently, but not sure how stable her faith is, we can only pray for God’s mercy and protection…

林慧萍走过我们前面跟我们握手。。。演唱会结束了我才知道原来不可以拍照!哈哈。。。
Lin Hui Ping walked past and shook hands with us… I only knew we were not allowed to take photographs after the concert! Haha…

昨晚跟星光帮的小美卢学睿一起晚餐,这小伙子不错,很可爱、健谈;他刚发了福音专辑,有很好的见证,所以会安排来我们教会分享。。。
Last night we had dinner with Lu Xue Rui of Star Walk, this is a fine young fellow, very cute and chatty; he has just released a Gospel album and has very good testimony, so I will arrange for him to come and share in our church…

当然最宝贵的还是跟我们的例外人在一起啦,哈哈!
But of course the most precious time spent has to be with our very own Remnant, haha!

突然间认识了那么多艺人,上帝到底要我做什么呢?
这是一个需要深思及寻求神的一个问题。。。
咦?这家伙又是谁啊???
Got to know so many celebrities all of a sudden, what does God really want me to do?
This is a question that requires much thinking and seeking the Lord…
Eh? Who is this fellow???
